What happened is that this is a private library (internal to the HTML engine's Java support), which was installed/built as shared in 3.0 improperly -- and it was converted to a static library -- but even though apps didn't really use it, the dependency got picked up :-(. Right now, in KDE CVS a dummy library is built for that to keep compatibility...

As you said, David probably knows best :) Here I am ;-) No, I wouldn't recommend to get rid of KDE 1 if you use cooker's rpms (of any KDE-1 application that is not part of the standard packages). But if you download the whole lot of KDE-2 packages from www.nebsllc.com, you can use it as your every day desktop (like I do). Note that all KDE-2 packages (mine and nebsllc's) use /opt/kde2, so using both KDEs is no problem. See http://www.kde.org/kde1-and-kde2.html for how to set up KDE 1 and KDE 2 for the same user (you can run apps of one from the other, and you can even select in kdm which one to use at login time). -- David FAURE [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.clara.net/faure/ KDE, Making The Future of Computing Available Today

Why are the cooker one's different... seeing how you are working for Mandrake, and yours are "better", why not distribute yours in Mandrake instead? Also, if /opt is relocatable to /usr then that would work, or I could even do rpm --badrelocate /opt=/usr *.rpm.

Ugh, sorry to bug you, but I'm leaving in a bit so be happy, but while I have you, whatever happened to the high color icons in KDE 1.1 and above... did Mandraker remove these? They really gave KDE a much nicer look. And the netslc site appears to not have RPMS at this time, but I was checking out some KDE 2 screenshots and saw the great high-color icons, and that question sprung to mind.

Yes, it is themed. But without kdebase2, you have no GUI for choosing the theme ;-) You can still try from the command line though. source /opt/kde2/bin/kde2 cd /opt/kde2/share/apps/kstyle/themes list the files in that directory, pick your theme, and then settheme $PWD/themename.rc Hmm, seems you need to log off and back in, though.

Re: [Cooker] KOffice packages
David, I would be more interested in kspread reports actually ;-) Installed KOffice here too. Applications start, but they all crash (not only kspread, but since you asked for it:) when I try to open an existing document or save a new one. Error message: kurl (kdecore): Error in parsing "Root Directory: /" /usr/bin/kspread.sh: line 3: 2753 Segmentation fault kspread Tell me if you need more info. It looks real nice otherwise. I like the inclusion of the extra kcalc. Just noticing that the buttons of the three left columns don't display the text entirely. The bottom is cut which makes them hard to read. cu, =-= kk1 =-= kk1 (Following lines are not from me). -- Do you do Linux? :) Get your FREE @linuxstart.com email address at: http://www.linuxstart.com

I was somehow confused that KOffice neeed KDE2, even though as you said, you stated multiple times it did not, but again, I think we were talking about kdelibs2, and not the entire K Destop Evnvironment v2.
